GUS: Teaching and Practicing Environmental Sustainability

Glen Urquhart School Teaching and Practicing Environmental Sustainability

This year, Glen Urquhart School made the conscious decision to make its campus pesticide and herbicide free. With nature trails winding through its 23-acre campus, Glen Urquhart has always focused on the natural world. According to Head of School David Liebmann,

“GUS is committed to addressing many of today’s most challenging environmental issues, including that of pesticide and herbicide use, and reducing the school’s overall carbon footprint. We want to be good stewards of the environment, and also put into daily practice what we’re teaching students at GUS.“
